I am a fan of roadkill and have even written about it in the past. But I have to be the one to kill the animal to consider eating it. I've never driven past a dead 'coon on the road and thought to myself, “Dinner?”

But the idea is worth thinking about: If the poor beastie is already dead, why not eat it?

Check out the video below for more on Rinella's roadkill raccoon, which made me wonder: Did roadkill go from a redneck joke to a mainstream option for a locavore? Oh, how times change.
